As Ramazan begins, Karachiites can expect a brief spell of cooler nights before temperatures rise in the coming days, weather analyst Jawad Memon has said.
According to Memon, nighttime temperatures in Karachi are expected to drop by two to three degrees Celsius over the next two to three days, with lows ranging between 13°C and 16°C. Suburban areas, including Surjani Town, Scheme 33, and Steel Town, may see even cooler temperatures, ranging from 10°C to 12°C.
Similarly, neighbourhoods such as Federal B Area, Orangi Town, and Gulshan-e-Iqbal are likely to experience nighttime temperatures between 12°C and 15°C.
He further noted that winter has officially ended in the coastal areas of Sindh and Balochistan, including Karachi, with stable temperatures ranging between 17°C and 20°C. However, a shift in weather patterns is expected from March 6, with daytime highs forecasted to reach between 35°C and 37°C, while nighttime temperatures will range between 22°C and 25°C.
Meanwhile, northern and upper areas of the country may experience a brief cold wave lasting three to four days due to recent snowfall in the region. The cold winds accompanying this weather system could bring a temporary chill to parts of Pakistan before temperatures rise again.
Karachiites are advised to prepare for fluctuating temperatures in the coming days as the transition from winter to summer continues.
